Whether you enjoy cooking up a treat in the kitchen or simply want to organize your food pantry in style, IKEA’s new food storage collection is perfect for meal prep.

The Kössebär collection is stocked with ribbed, air-tight glass food jars, bottles, and baskets that are great essentials for pickling, preserving, jam-making, juicing and more.

And as someone who loves aesthetic appeal, I think the glass jars are also perfect for decanting dried foods, rather than storing unsightly cardboard boxes and packets.

Not only will they upgrade your kitchen countertops, but most items are under an affordable $20 — making it a great bargain.

Ranging from glass bottles to jars, here are my favorite items I’ll be picking up.

My top picks

IKEA KÖSSEBÄR Jar with lid, clear glass

This spacious glass jar is perfect to store dried foods such as pasta, cereal or granola. I particularly like the ribbed, square-shaped design, and its sealed lid will keep foods fresh at all times.

IKEA KÖSSEBÄR Bottle-shaped jar with lid

If you love juicing fresh fruit, or simply want to pour liquids into a stylish container, I love this bottle-shaped jar. It comes with a glass lid to ensure no spillages, and can easily fit into your fridge.

For those who fancy making homemade jam or preserves, these three glass jars are perfect to store them in. These are also ideal for loose items such as tea leaves or even spices. The glass jars come with airtight lids to preserve the flavor, and its ribbed pattern style make a nice decorative feature.

And if you like to host in style, other eye-catching items from the KÖSSEBÄR collection include a yellow and white apron , or these patterned dish towels.
